THE
DIARY OF AN OLD SOUL by GEORGE
MACDONALD &
THE
WHITE PAGE DIARY by BETTY ABERLIN |
|
Betty
Aberlin, a native New Yorker of
Russian-Jewish ancestry, raised
in post-Holocaust orthodox
atheism and nurtured in the
arts, responded to MacDonald’s
invitation with daily poems of
her own. Following the strict
poetic form of The Diary of
an Old Soul was an
illuminating experience. In her
own 7-line, 3-rhyme, 10-syllable
pattern, Aberlin creates a
unique mixture of recurring
themes and images. Her vision is
fresh and honest, revealing a
keen observation of nature and
human nature – from the
exhilarations of faith, hope and
love to the despairs of war,
rejection and failure. Here is a
contemporary poetic voice who
opens additional paths into
spiritual reflection.
Betty's acting life has included musical
theater, television and film. |

LITERARY HERITAGE AND HEIRS |

Now Available
It has been
15 years since Roderick McGillis edited
For the Childlike, a landmark
collection of essays about George
MacDonald’s writings. This latest
collection of 14 essays sets a new
standard that will influence scholars
for many more years. George MacDonald
experts are increasingly evaluating his
entire corpus within the nineteenth
century context. This volume provides
further evidence that MacDonald will
eventually emerge from the restrictive
and somewhat misleading reputation of
being C.S. Lewis’ spiritual “master.”

UNLOCKING HARRY POTTER
&
THE HIDDEN KEY TO HARRY POTTER
by JOHN GRANGER |
|
John has spoken
about the meaning of the Potter books
in settings as diverse as your local
Barnes and Noble bookstore, an elite
secondary school and church community
in Houston, and an academic 'fan-cons'
about Harry at Disney World in Florida
and in Los Vegas. His talk on 'Alchemy
in English Literature' at Nimbus 2003
was voted best presentation of the 67
academic papers and boards given during
the four day conference and was published
in the November, 2003, issue of Touchstone
magazine as
The Alchemist's Tale.
Among 190 "spin-off" books on Harry Potter,
Unlocking Harry Potter was
highlighted in the May 10, 2007 issue of
The Wall Street Journal.
Various groups want
John to speak both because of what he
has to say and how he says it. His expertise
in traditional literature and the Harry
Potter books allows him to speak
at depth about the meaning of the books
and Potter mania. His charity and wit
makes his common sense observations as
engaging as they are challenging and
stimulating. In the summer of 2007
John will be a featured speaker in
conventions in Philadelphia, Toronto,
and London.
